Ashli Babbitt, a U.S. Air Force veteran killed during the January 6th Capitol riot, will receive military funeral honors. The decision, announced by the Air Force, follows a wrongful death lawsuit settlement and advocacy from conservative groups. Babbitt, who was shot while attempting to breach the Capitol building, has become a symbol for some Republicans. The Air Force reviewed her case and reversed an earlier decision denying military honors.
